Hello how is everyone? The weather has been shit lately but when it's good, it's been goooooood. Anyway, I hope everyone is healthy and happy. I feel so shit for being such a shit friend at keeping in touch via facebook, email, or this : ( I'm so sorry, I've been so busy like crazy. I've finished my exams for a week and a bit now. Feels like longer than that to be honest! I've just been seeing friends, catching up as exams have isolated me from everyone outside of my house. nice. But in all honesty, I'm glad I actually tried this year. I swear I've never done any real work in terms of school. I suppose I've always found it easy just to scrape through and saw no incentive to push a bit more. Well anyway it was painful to have to sit for hours learning everything and writing notes as I've skived WAY too much for my own good this year (nice one). Funnily enough the modules that I've done considerably well in essays throughout the year were the ones I think I've done shit in in exams. Only time will tell; 18th of June!!!! ugh, the dread.
Anyway, on lighter note I am going on holiday in less than 2 weeks!!! Well deserved if you asked me. I haven't been on holiday since last summer!! shit, that makes me so sad. Nevermind, I will be in Mexico soon enough doing fuck all, worry about nothing and seeing my good mate Gerardo whom I've not seen for almost a whole year!!! Mental, come to think of it it wasn't so long ago since I first met him and how quickly we got on and became good mates etcetc I have missed the bitchy sessions ;) can't fucking wait!
As soon as I get back I'll be meeting with my mom and my younger sister. It would be almost ten months since I've seen them. Too fucking long! I'm quite excited hehe although a 17 hour flight with my mom after would probz drive me off the edge.
Now that exams are done it takes a bit of getting used to. I've just about gotten rid of the guilt of not doing any revision in a day, or just lounging around chilling with a spliff. I've even read a book! Something I haven't done since I've been in uni, actually... :( I got The Secret History by Donna Tartt last christmas from Ewan (despite making it perfectly clear that from experience I have often despised modern fiction) and yeah, it was alright. For the most part it annoyed me but credit where it is due, she is a very good writer. I'm not quite sure what Donna Tartt was trying to say in her book. It was written in the first person so it was quite hard to gauge her position. The characters had too much pretension in them (which was shit and I can't stand it), and some of the characters were really, really good. Also, I think the book was pretty gripping especially towards the end. aaaagh I can't go on anymore without giving everything away. If you care enough, have a read. Kept me interested for a bit at least.
Mmm I think that's pretty much it really. I'm only heading back to Brunei on 4th of August as my family will be here for my brother's much anticipated graduation (lolz my older sister's graduation is later cos she's stuck in med school). So I will probably miss the opportunity to see some old friends (Josephine o.o) which sucks a fuck (how do you suck a fuck, Donnie?) but everyone else I have to see!!!! give me a ring?
